The Lord of Ashes

Chapter 987 Life Story

I didn't notice it two days ago, but today, after carefully observing the monster for a while, Sean found that it seemed to be a "human".

The ferocious appearance and sharp claws of the other party really have nothing to do with "humans", but Sean judged that this guy should be a mutated human from this plane by observing its joints, breathing frequency, and pupil phenomenon.

"It's a bit like the abomination created by the necromancers in the wizard world."

"But the abomination is made of corpses, and the necromancers in the wizard world have also applied some of the secrets of puppet mechanisms to those undead war machines in recent years."

"Compared to the 'abomination warriors' made by the necromancers in the wizard world, this guy in front of me is simply a low-quality product." Sean commented, touching his chin.

He didn't waste too much time on this seriously injured monster that barely touched the first-level threshold.

Several light element energy columns suddenly came out from Sean's hands.

The scorching light element energy is the most restraining death creatures such as monsters.

After these light element energy columns penetrated the monster's shoulder armor and other parts of its body, they immediately transformed into a light net, directly encircling and restraining the other party.

"Hiss!" The white steam and the foul smell of corrosion came from the monster's body.

Sudden and severely injured, the monster did not even have the strength to resist and was directly subdued by Sean.

"Ah!" A piercing roar came from the monster's mouth.

In the gaps between its jagged and sharp fangs, Sean seemed to see some meat scraps and bone residue.

These meat scraps and bone residues definitely did not come from the fish creatures in this underground water pipe.

In a corner not far from the monster's habitat, Sean saw some small human bones.

With the special connection between this monster and the girl, it is not difficult for Sean to guess that the souls of the people who were taken back by the girl in the past were unconsciously devoured by her, and the bodies should have been eaten by this monster.

Were both this monster and the girl deliberately "free-range"?

Sean frowned slightly and saw the corner of the wall behind the monster. In addition to a stain and some debris, a piece of red rag was very conspicuous.

This piece of red rag may come from a scarf or a hat.

In short, it is just a rag now.

Considering the slovenly and ugly disgusting degree of this monster, the red rag actually looks a little clean.

When Sean stretched out his right hand and used the magic hand to suck the rag in front of him, the monster suppressed by him struggled even harder.

More and more dense white steam came from its corroded wound.

If it is not allowed to calm down as soon as possible, this guy may try to forcefully break through Sean's elemental light net, and eventually be cut into pieces of meat by the hot light net.

This is not what Sean wants to see.

After taking a look at the very ordinary red rag in his hand, Sean stretched his other hand towards the top of the monster's head.

This monster should have some mental retention. Sean wanted to see what was in its soul and memory.

In fact, the girl in the wooden house could also let Sean search her soul with soul magic.

It was just that she was too weak, and Sean could not guarantee whether there would be any sequelae after using soul magic.

But this gray monster was different. Even if the other party died in the end, Sean would not feel sorry.

He would only regret that he had lost a living specimen that could be studied.

Three strange silver runes appeared on Sean's fingertips. As his magic power invaded the monster's brain, the gray monster, which was originally in a fierce struggle, gradually calmed down.

Strong physical strength does not mean that the other party also has a tough soul.

Why did Sean judge that this guy was just barely a first-level combat power, not a real first-level creature?

It was because he guessed that this gray monster was artificially transformed into this appearance. The other party gave it powerful destructive power, but did not give it the corresponding soul strength.

The secrets of soul science... no matter which plane, it is an extremely profound academic mystery.

That is to say, as the top civilization, the wizard world has produced countless powerful magicians who explore this field, so it has achieved high results in this academic field.

Under Sean's soul monitoring, some intermittent pictures were soon presented in front of him in the form of elemental light curtains.

Most of these pictures are meaningless, with serious frame drops, and the overall color is gray.

It was not until Sean searched for the deepest scenes in the monster's memory that some color pictures gradually appeared.

This should be at least 20 years ago. Sean saw a half-grown boy holding a girl younger than him in his hand under the blood-red sunset, standing in front of two lonely graves.

Then the picture flashed, and Sean saw some skeletons and strange creatures similar to ghosts chasing the two people in the night.

The last color picture showed the boy being tied up in a dark basement with some strange patterns. In the corners of the basement, several people in black robes injected a foamy gray injection into his body.

After watching these pictures, Sean fell into silence for a moment.

He naturally judged that the gray monster was the boy in the picture.

And the girl who took care of him these days was the little girl that the boy was holding in the picture.

It turns out that the girl had been calling him brother because she mistook him for this gray monster.

‏‎‏‎‏​‎‏‎‎‎‏‎‎‏The gray monster appeared that night and had been hiding in the underground water pipe, probably to protect the girl.

Although the girl usually looks a little more normal than her brother and still maintains her human form.

But the one who really retains more memories is actually this gray monster.

At least this gray monster will not recognize the wrong person and knows to protect his sister.

The red rag in Sean's hand was the girl's scarf several years ago and the only brightly colored clothing on her body.

This monster couldn't stay with the girl for a long time and could only guard such a rag.

What a touching story...

Sean, this cold guy, didn't feel anything at all.

Compared with the tragic life of this boy, Sean, who was in a state of contemplation at this time, almost focused on the fighting methods used by the black-robed men in the previous clips and the strange patterns in the underground secret room.

There is no doubt that those black-robed people also have a certain ability to control undead creatures.

However, Sean judged that they did not use the methods of the undead magicians in the wizard world, but another more crude and primitive control method.

Including the special pattern in the secret room, it seems to be a special magic circle that condenses the element of death.

Sean does not deny the unique means of using elemental power developed by this world, but he can at least be sure that this world, at least in the exploration and use of the elemental road, must lag behind the wizard civilization.

"After all, it's just a large world." Sean exhaled lightly.
